Unemployment


The problem with Rome is that not everyone has a job. But not everyone has a job right now, but this seems worse.
Rome seems to be falling apart bit by bit. Its mostly because the economy is falling down. And people don't have
jobs like they use to.
During the latter years of the empire farming was done on large estates called latifundia that were owned by wealthy men who used slave labor. A farmer had to pay workmen could not produce goods as cheaply. Many farmers could not compete with these low prices and lost or sold their farms. This not only undermined the citizen farmer who passed his values to his family, but also filled the cities with unemployed people. At one time, the emperor was importing grain to feed more than 100,000 people in Rome alone. These people were not only a burden but also had little to do but cause trouble and contribute to an ever increasing crime rate.

Solutions


stop the slavory and that will bring more jobs in the Roman community. With no slavory Rome might have never fell and turned in to what we know as to day and great visiting place but still could have been the great empire as they knew of back then.
